The wizard build I've been working with (which just got me to Hell, so of course it's been viable so far) is:
Force Armor / Familiar / Magic Weapon / Archon
The only gear-dependent affix that you really need is +% movement speed.
In NM (again, so anything's possible), I was able to clear out 2 levels of the Terminus (A2) in 1 casting of Archon.
In A3, in the levels leading up the fight with Ghlom, I twice received massacre awards for 65+ monsters.
Archon seems like a really really really good skill. I'll hopefully get through Hell by the weekend, so I can give a better report on how this does in Inferno.
